Guerlain Terracotta Sun In The City Golden Glimmer Powder

I just got back from a quick trip to pick up a few products from the new Guerlain line!!  I was so excited to have these in hand!!!  My camera is acting up and for now I was unable to capture good swatches, so for now it is just a couple pics and description.  While Sun In The City is gorgeous, I am not sure how often I will use it.  I had second thoughts on the purchase, but needed to try it myself.  I get pretty shiny and do not need any help with that.  This product is heavy on the shine, so I guess we will see.  It can be used as a highliter or all over glow product.  It is very gold and has a bit of metallic to it.  The design is out of this world, as are most of guerlains highliters.  I did not realize it had a bumpy design too!!  This product is huge!!! Not quite as big as the mosaic from last year, but close.

I'm in trouble! Finally used a guerlain lipgloss

I just got back from the mall.  I went just to return something and get 2 things in it's place.  While looking around I swatched Guerlains new kiss kiss gloss 870 cherry pink.  It is out of this world gorgeous!  I put some on and it immediately lit my face up!  I tried to think if I have something similar already, but I could not think of anything.  So, that meant I HAD to have it right?   It is a gorgeous sheer fuchsia pink with sparkles. It is surprisingly natural when on.  The sparkles are very subtle.  It is Guerlain after all.  Elegant.  I think this might be the nicest lipgloss I have ever used!  It is not sticky and you don't feel that gritty glitter feeling.  I think I like these better than Chanels glossimers!! I need to do a wear test and see how long it lasts. These glosses are very pricey.  Why do I have to have a taste for the finer things when I don't have the money for them??  Pictured are all the new kiss kiss glosses.  Cherry pink is on the left.  They are heavy swatches, so they look much more subtle on the lips.  You can apply more to get more of a pigmented look.

guerlain cruel gardenia

As promised here is a glimpse of the Guerlain cruel gardenia.  Not the best pic, but a pic!  It was used as a highlighter on my upper cheekbone.  I also used a blush with it.

Guerlain cruel gardenia

I had been waiting for months after seeing a stock photo of Cruel Gardenia to come out!  It was love at first sight.  Everything about it was gorgeous.  The packaging, the product itself, and the way it looks on the skin. It reminded me of Estee Lauder's modern mercury, but  a little more subtle and pink.  I would describe it as a light pinkish silver.  It did not make my pores look huge like most metallics.  I was very surprised at that.  It did seem to make my pores look larger when swatched on my hands, but it is totally different on my face.  It was so pretty I bought a back up!  I do not do this at all with make up, so this was unusual.  It was on the pricey side, but it is worth it.  I highly recommend!! I will try to do a face of the day with it on tomorrow!

Tried to swatch the 2. Guerlain is on the right.
